Re: Preparse Query Rewrite Plugin DLL

Hello,

By the looks of it you seem to be trying to use server code in a way that a plugin is not supposed to be using it.
The most common reason for that is defining MYSQL_SERVER inside your plugin code.
Some of the headers are shared between the plugins and the server code, but they do different things (as they are supposed to) depending on whether they're sourced as part of the server or the plugin code.
The distinction is done through the above define MYSQL_SERVER.
The performance schema headers are a typical example of that. They compile the instrumentation calls differently depending on whether they're in a plugin or in the server code.

So, bottom line: don't define MYSQL_SERVER in your plugin. If you do you're on your own. It may work on some OSes and on some compiler versions. But you'll need to always compile your plugin with each server update from exactly the same codebase as the hosting server binary.
